Do companies send out C&Ds for your average user torrenting? I've gotten thousands of DMCA letters but never a C&D, and I've only ever heard of 1 person getting one, and they were silly enough to be hosting a collection of paid content that they scraped themselves, from their home.

DMCA demands are, as far as I'm aware, completely automated and couldn't really cost much.
